Sign the Petition to

President Obama, Majority Leader Reid & Speaker Boehner

All children deserve to be safe, parents cannot abdicate this responsibility, and we as a community must make sure families have needed resources. Regardless of the circumstances, children cannot be abandoned to chance exploitation, abuse and neglect. The Administration and Congress must develop and enact recommendations to end private custody transfers of adopted children.

Signed,

Child Welfare League of America
